Thoughts so far? Best overall Ive seen play the position. If you were starting an NFL team from scratch and could pick ANY QB from any era as your starter, you'd pick Pat or you'd be a moron. No questions. Dude is on a whole other level. He passes all the QB tests and adds the all important "eye test" too which players like Brady, Aikman and others never did well with. Brady rode a defense and the tuck rule to three titles. Was handed two others by the worst play calling in NFL history and just doesnt play the position like Pat does. Manning was an amazing player and revolutionized how the position is played from pre-snap and game management skills. But he aint no Pat. Montana was surgical and played great during his run. However, he was surrounded by a HOF roster on both sides of the ball for most of his career. Same for Bradshaw - excellent player but also had a HOF roster all the time at his disposal. I still think Joe Montana was a beast but Id take Pat over him anyways.
I watched and loved Marino, Fouts, Staubach, Elway, Rodgers, Favre, Tarkenton, Kelly, etc. All great. But Pat is something else.
Discussion over. Pats the best. What else do you guys want to talk about?
